Guys. I started a remake of Pokemon Ruby. This is all I can show you for progress but... Meh, progress is progress. http://imgur.com/rZt...6NEV2QD,GJlesMO
This game will require ether:
Lots of Discs (To store 15MB worth of data on) or
A custom config that allows 15MB+ data on a single computer.

The reason why the game uses so much data is because it has ALL the sprites from the actual game, so we need lots of space.

I plan to have the full story, stat logic, and move logic in the game, a swell as all the Pokemon logic.

Anyways, I wanted to post this before I went to bed. Goodnight.

Haven't played ruby in a long while humm... I Should check that.

The scale of this project is crazy. Weather you finish it or not I congratulate you for event the attempt. On another note why not make an emulator that could run more than one game ?? more effort initially but bigger pay off in the End ?

Wait... how did you get the screen... did you make a custom peripheral?

Personally, I've never (thats right, never) played Pokemon before. I've watched people play it, but I've never played it. (please, don't start a flamewar, I'm just pointing this out) So I don't have a huge understanding of Pokemon and how it works, but is it really 15MB! Any chance you can give us a demo type thing?

This looks amazing by the way.

The peripheral is CCLights2. I am using my custom ccdesk plugin. I don't know if I can give you guys a demo, but the code is going on GitHub so that we can all work on the game. This will soon become a community project.

An emulator would not be feasible because CC is basically emulated, Emuceptions are slow :P/>

And aren't emulators for other's work also... illegal? I think it's best to just code your own code (what you're doing right now).

The laws surrounding emulators are kinda weird. If you make a emulator you are walking a thin line.

Can't you lower the resolution on the sprites, and save some data? it's not like we need pixel by pixel reproduction.

And that guys is why I am not making an emulator!

CCLights2 does not have alpha blending. The resolutions are fine, if I resized them we would lose needed details. One thing I can look into is using indexed colors, since it is a reproduction of a gameboy game.

Improvements! I just made the game require less! Before, with the front, back, icons, and battlebackground, the game needed 11MB of space. Using my new "ultra uber compressinal method from deep under the sea" or UUCMFDUS, I now only use 4.1mb of data WHILE retaining the quality of the game!

Well Im not laughing at you. I have just said that the newer pokemons are.. You know.. special..
But if you do like it, dont hold back to play it. You play games for entertainment, you dont play for your friends.
Please, if I did offend you, I need to make apologies. I did not meant it like that, you must play what you like :)
